Seagulls take flight as the distant drone of Merlin engines
starts to rise above the sound of wind and surf on their deserted
beach. Overhead Mosquito B Mk IVs of 139 Squadron return low
across the North Sea after a successful mission. In moments they
will be gone, with only a few miles to navigate before they land
at their base at Horsham St Faith in Norfolk.
